Guide to 120Hz HDTVs: Which Sets Have That Magic Number?

In the first part of this series we showed you how 120Hz technology will double up frames and make watching movies on HDTV even crispier than ever.

We laid our own eyes on many of the 120Hz sets on the show floor at CES, and can vouch for their stupendous quality.
At CES in January, most of the major flat panel display manufacturers were showing 120Hz TVs, aiming to quell those rumblings that some of the standard HDTV sets weren't laying down smooth-enough video, especially when watching movies.
